Felbrigg has so much to offer families. From children's trails around the hall to den building in the woods, find out all you need to know to plan a great day out. Explore inside the hall and imagine what it might have been like to have lived or worked here. Discover the Ice House in the Great Wood and visit the Walled Garden to spot metalwork creatures – and keep a look out for our pest-control hens!

Planning your family visit

  • You’ll find baby changing with the toilets next to our stable courtyard, turning right just before you get to the main reception.
  • We welcome breastfeeding everywhere at Felbrigg, including in our tea-room and can provide hot water for making up bottles.
  • High chairs are available in the tea-room.
  • If you fancy a picnic, you’ll find benches in the meadow area in front of the stable courtyard. You’re also welcome to picnic on a blanket in the grounds.
  • There are plenty of buggy-friendly paths around the gardens and parkland. Don’t hesitate to ask a member of the welcome team for hints and tips.
